The Hauppauge 16:9/4:3 settings are going to have no effect on the Width of the menu and other screens. All this setting will effect is video. For example, if you have the Hauppauge MVP software set for a 4:3 tv, and try to play a 16:9 video then it'll cut the sides off the picture.
From what I could tell you should be setting you TV aspect ratio to Fullscreen, which will give you menus that fill the screen, and with the Hauppauge MVP software also set to a 16:9 tv, then you should also get the correct aspect ratio video.
The should mention that the mvpmc dongle does a slight better job at managing the aspect ratio than the Hauppauge dongle.
